IMPORTANT NOTICE

We would like to inform you that the guided tour of the Alcázar of the Christian Monarchs cannot take place as usual due to the restoration works that have been ongoing since last June.

Although the monument’s full reopening was initially scheduled for November, we have recently been notified that the partial closure will continue. Therefore, during the visit, we will only be able to access and explore the areas currently open to the public: the Alcázar Gardens and the Arab Baths of the Caliphal Alcázar, both part of the same monumental complex.

Join your guide at the meeting point and head to Calleja de la Hoguera, a narrow street from the Arabic era and see a historic mosque. Historians believe Cordoba once hosted over a thousand mosques in the 10th-century. From Calleja de la Hoquera you will head to the Jewish Quarter with origins from the 14th-century. 

Starting in Plaza Cardenal Salazar, see the statue of Algafequi, the first doctor to operate on eyes in Europe in the 12th-century. An old hospital from the 18th-century stands there now as a university as well. Walk to Capilla Mudejar de San Bartolomé, an old arabesque style Christian chapel built by a Jewish convert. Learn about the building’s hidden history from your guide who will share its secrets.

Head to the souk, a craft work market with the local products typical of Cordoba. After time in the souk see a breathtaking medieval synagogue. The synagogue was built in the 14th-century and is one of the few Jewish monuments that has survived a tumultuous history. 

Your tour ends at the Alcazar of the Catholic Monarchs. Learn about the history of the Catholic Monarchs and the role the Alcazar played in the city’s past.
